On Saturday the 20th of February 2016, Friend of KOSHH, Campaigner, and GP, Dr Bob Gill appeared on RT’s “Sputnik” programme, being interviewed about some of the threats to the NHS.

Campaigners from KOSHH were out to show their support for the junior doctors at the picket lines today, at St Helier Hospital and Sutton train station. Lots of people driving past showed their support by sounding their horns enthusiastically. Read the KOSHH statement on the junior doctors strike here, here and here.

KOSHH commends the hard work of the excellent staff at Epsom and St Helier in coping with this increase. It is important to remember that early 2015 saw […]
KOSHH members were out in force to show our support for St Helier Hospital’s Junior Doctors in the picket line, on the day of industrial action. Despite the very cold weather, there was an excellent turnout, far in excess of anything shown on the media, as you can see from the pictures below. Our view is that […]
